We keep score in every sport, every class, and every stock portfolio. But what is your score for life? If you have been so focused on your business that your health, marriage, or personal growth has taken a hit, you need to know that before you set another goal. This episode introduces the LifeScore concept and challenges you to assess where you really stand.<\/p>\n
Why are sports so popular? Because we keep score. Scores tell us whether we are winning or losing. We are wired to pay attention to things we measure. But when it comes to life overall, most of us have no idea what our score actually is.<\/p>\n
The LifeScore concept, popularized by Michael Hyatt, asks a simple question: are you winning at the game of life?<\/strong> Not just in business, but across all the domains that matter — health, relationships, finances, personal growth, spirituality, and more.<\/p>\n The danger for entrepreneurs is tunnel vision. You might be crushing your revenue goals while your marriage quietly deteriorates, your health declines, or you stop investing in yourself as a person. The LifeScore assessment helps you see the full picture before you commit to goals that double down on your strengths while ignoring your weak spots.<\/p>\n Michael Hyatt identifies 10 focus areas for assessment. You can use his tool or simply ask yourself honest questions:<\/p>\n There is no way to get where you are going if you do not know where you are.<\/strong> My own LifeScore went from 62 to 75 in one year by focusing on the areas where I was weakest. That is the power of assessment — once you measure it, you start improving it.<\/p>\n This episode also includes a tech tip covering two Mac blogging tools: MarsEdit 4 (a mature desktop blog editor) and Blogo (a newer visual alternative).
